The co-ordination number will be 12 and the distance between the two nearest atoms will be a 2 2 (a) Relationship between edge length 'a' and atomic radius 'r' : In FCC, along the face diagonal all atoms touches each other and the length of face diagonal is 2a .

The total contribution of 8 corners is 1 8 8 æ ö´ç ÷ è ø = 1, while that of 6 face centred atoms is 1 6 2 æ ö´ç ÷ è ø = 3 in the unit cell.

For such solids, it is found that the lowest energy structure is that in which each particle is surrounded by the greatest possible number of neighbours. In order to understand the structure of such solids, let us consider the particles as hard sphere of equal size in three directions. Although there are many ways to arrange the hard spheres but the one in which maximum available space is occupied will be economical which is known as closed packing now we describe the different arrangements of spherical particles of equal size. When the spheres are packed in a plane it gives two types of packing.

This is known as interstices (or interstitial site or hole or empty space or voids). In three dimentional close packing (CCP & HCP) the interstices are of two types : (i) tetrahedral interstices and (ii) octahedral interstices. (A) Tetrahedral Interstices We have seen that in hexagonal close packing (HCP) and cubic close packing (CCP) each sphere of second layer touches with three spheres of first layer. Thus they, leave a small space in between which is known as tetrahedral site or interstices or the vacant space between 4 touching spheres is called as tetrahedral void. Since a sphere touches three spheres in the below layer and three spheres in the above layer hence there are two tetrahedral sites associated with one sphere. Tetrahedral void A tetrahedral interstices Tetrahedron geometry Ses sio n 2 01 9-2 0 ALL EN Z: \N O D E0 2\ B0 A I-B 0\ TA RG ET \C H EM \E N G \M O D U LE -4 \1 .S O LID S TA TE \0 1- TH EO RY .P 65 15E Pre-Medical : ChemistryALLEN It may by noted that a tetrahedral site does not mean that the site is tetrahedral in geometry but it means that this site is surrounded by four spheres and by joining the centres of these four spheres forms a regular tetrahedron. In FCC, one corner and its three face centres form a tetrahedral void In FCC, two tetrahedral voids are obtained along one cube diagonal. So in FCC, 8 tetrahedral voids are present. A B C D 1 2 3 4 Te trahedra l vo id C ub e di ag on al In FCC, total number of atoms = 4 In FCC, total number of tetrahedral voids = 8 So, we can say that, in 3D close packing 2 tetrahedral voids are attached with one atom. (B) Octahedral Interstices Hexagonal close packing (hcp) and cubic close packing (ccp) also form another type of interstices which is called octahedral site.The vacant space between 6 touching spheres is called as octahedral void. In the figure, two layers of close packed spheres are shown. The spheres of first layer are shown by full circles while that of second layer by dotted circles. Two triangles are drawn by joining the centres of three touching spheres of both the layers : In fcc, 6 face centres form a octahedral void. On super imposing these triangles on one another one octahedral site is created. It may be noted that an octahedral site does not mean that the hole is octahedral in shape but it means that this site is surrounded by six nearest neighbour lattice points arranged octahedrally. (1/4 th part of octahedral void is obtained at each edge) Octahedral void (at the edge) Octahedra l vo id (a t the bo dy centre ) In FCC, total number of octahedral voids = ( 1 × 1) + (12 × 1 4 ) = 1 + 3 = 4 (Cube centre) (edge centre) In FCC, number of atoms = 4 and number of octahedral voids = 4 : number of tetrahedral voids = 8 So we can say that, in 3D close packing one octahedral void is attached with one atom.

Assertion : In crystal lattice, the size of the cation is larger in a tetrahedral hole than in an octahedral hole. Reason : The cations occupy more space than atoms in crystal packing. (1) A (2) B (3) C (4) D Solution. Ans. (4) Illustration13. Each unit cell of NaCl consists of 14 Cl– ions and (1) 13 Na+ (2) 14 Na+ (3) 6 Na+ (4) All are wrong Solution. Ans. (1) Illustration14. A solid A+B– has NaCl type close packed structure. If the anion has a radius of 250 pm, what should be the ideal radius for the cation ? Can a cation C+ having a radius of 180 pm be slipped into the tetrahedral site of the crystal A+B– ? Give reason for your answer. Solution In Na+Cl– crystal each Na+ ion is surrounded by 6 Cl+ ions and vice versa. Thus Na+ ion is placed in octahedral hole. The limiting radius ratio for octahedral site = 0.414 or A B + - = r 0.414 R = Given that radius of anion (B–) R = 250 pm i.e. radius of cation (A+) r = 0.414 R = 0.414 × 250 pm = 103.5 pm Thus ideal radius for cation (A+) is r = 103.5 pm. We know that (r/R) for tetrahedral hole is 0.225. \ r 0.225 R = : So r = 56.25 pm Thus ideal radius for cation is 56.25 pm for tetrahedral hole. But the radius of C+ is 180 pm. It is much larger than ideal radius i.e. 56.25 pm. Therefore we can not slipped cation C+ into the tetrahedral site. Illustration15. Assertion :– In rock salt structure, the sodium ions occupy octahedral voids. Reason :– The radius ratio r+/r– in case of NaCl lies betwen 0.225 to 0.414. (1) A (2) B (3) C (4) D Solution. Ans.

Ideal crystals are grown up at absolute kelvin temperature (zero K). Solid state is characterised by vibratory motion about the mean position of constituent particles. At absolute zero, all the types of motions cease, and therefore crystals tend to have a perfectly ordered arrangement. As the temperature increases, molecular motions (vibratory amplitudes) increase and therefore the ions may lose their usual sites and either get missed or occupy interstitial positions in the crystal, ie., deviations from ordered arrangement take place. Any deviation from the perfectly ordered arrangement gives rise to a defect or imperfection in the crystal. Defect in crystals are produced either due to thermal effects or by adding certain impurities in the pure crystals (doping). Defects in crystals may be discussed as Crystal defects Stoichiometric defects Impurity defects (some external impurity is mixed) Non stoichiometric defects Schottky defect Frenkel defect Metal excess defect Metal deficiency defect (A) Stoichiometric Defects Stoichiometric compounds are those in which the number of positive and negative ions are exactly in the ratio as shown by their chemical formulae. Two types of defects are observed in these compounds. (a) Schottky defect, (b) Frenkel defect (a) Schottky defect : This type of defect is produced when equal number of cations and anions are missing from their respective positions leaving behind a pair of holes. The crystal as a whole remains neutral because the number of missing positive ions (cations) and negative ions (anions) is the same Ses sio n 2 01 9-2 0 ALL EN Z: \N O D E0 2\ B0 A I-B 0\ TA RG ET \C H EM \E N G \M O D U LE -4 \1 .S O LID S TA TE \0 1- TH EO RY .P 65 23E Pre-Medical : ChemistryALLEN Illustration 17.

(1) A (2) B (3) C (4) D Solution Ans. (2) Illustration 18. Schottky defect lowers the density of ionic crystals while Frenkel defect does not. Discuss. Solution. In Schottky defect, certain cations and anions are missing from the crystal lattice. Therefore, the density of the crystal decreases.However, in Frenkel defect the ions do not leave the lattice but they simply change their positions from lattice points to the interstitial spaces. As a result, the density of the crystal remains unchanged. 2 1. The edge length of face centred cubic unit cell having rock salt structure is 508 pm.
